Description

High Fructose Gel 44g Neutral Energy gel formulated with maltodextrin and fructose in a 10:8 ratio, providing high amounts of carbohydrates 44 g formats. This formulation, based on “multiple transportable carbohydrates”, has shown through studies that during extended exercise, the use of carbohydrates that are absorbed in the intestine by different transporters is the only way to increase the rate of assimilation and oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates above 60 g/hour . To that end, researchers confirm that the ideal thing is to combine sources of carbohydrates. We opted for Maltodextrin, to control molecular weight/osmolarity, the other one being Fructose.
Maltodextrine:
– Unlike glucose, it needs to be broken down, which results in a more gradual and sustained source of energy.
– It has a high glycemic index, achieving a rapid increase in blood glucose without necessarily having an excessively sweet taste that could be overwhelming in this type of product.
– As it is a carbohydrate chain, it has a high molecular weight that leads to a much more concentrated osmolarity solution, improving digestion and reducing the secondary gastrointestinal effects.
Fructose:
– Fructose is a monosaccharide, the simplest form in which we find carbohydrates. Based on the latest studies to maximize the oxidation of exogenous carbohydrates, it is used in the ratio of 1:0.8 vis-à-vis other ratios.
– The use of fructose in such a specific ratio is particularly recommended for athletes who exceed carbohydrate intakes of 60g/h.
